I have heard about this for awhile and even had it on my tbr list for over a year, I hate myself for not reading it sooner. It had me hooked in chapter one. I love Lana i don't know exactly everything she went through but i know enough to know she is a very strong women to over come what she went through. Yes she maybe be a monster but they made her into that. She went through alot to make sure she got her revenge. Loved that she met someone that made her feel again. Scared he will find out who she is and arrest her. It may not be right what she is doing but i totally understand why she is doing it. Love Lana and Logan cant wait to see were their relationship goes. I am glad she has Jake in her corner and helps her to get their revenge.

Loved the book and the message about mens mental health. People always think that a man is not suppose to break but they have feelings too. They are allowed to break and cry aint nothing wrong or less manly about that...... That is one way to find out your only a couple of hours Husband is cheating on you. Even though i didn't want to see Sofia in pain he didn't deserve her and glad his ex best friend spilled the beans. But Jaxs and her first night together 🥵🥵🥵. Even though he misses the first year of his baby girl and not begin there for Sofia during her pregnancy i think he handled it well when Sofia finally told him. But it did add to his mental without either of realizing it. As a mother of three boys i hope i showed my boys that it is ok to show your feelings not just because you cry doesn't mean you aint manly. I know Jax wasn't in the right place when he met Sofia and he did what he thought helped him forget. But after he thought he had cheated on Sofia and he wouldn't get his family back. The black hole he went into is so scary to know that alot of men out there don't want to let their feels out for either not having someone to vent to or thinking the world is better without them is scary. He though Sofia had to do something so drastic to show him he isn't alone im happy she go through to him. Loved Jaxed and Sofia and their little family they got their happy ever after and Jax is getting the help he needs. Hated Anna at first i thought she was a good friend but right away i could tell something was wrong with her.
Born Into Blood by Sonja Grey
I have loved this family since book one of the original Melnikov man. Felt bad for how Lara grew up, even though it wasn't the moms fought she needed help and didn't realize it still no child should have to deal with that. Even though she was hurting herself to help her deal with her mom and home life i liked that she was able to see that wasn't healthy either and stopped. Luka is just like his father. Willing to do anything for his family. Loved that he wasn't someone that slept around and him and Lara got to experience all their first together. Laughed when he got someone to put new locks on Laras apartment, like father like son. Luka knows he will be the next in line to be head of the family and take it serious that he was willing to put his personal life aside. But luckily he met Lara and they both fell in love with each other. Of course i love when the whole family is together and to see that their joking around with each other is still there and the love the men have for their women 😍😍😍. Cant wait for the next book

I love all the books in this series. The guys and their family the bond they have is amazing and of healing through each others pain. Even though Bullets book was my favorite Demons comes second. I couldn't wait to read his story, i already knew why he was like he was but finally see him with Isadora and to see she was exactly what he needed to help him heal and see why he needed to live why he deserved to have a family and be happy because not only did he deserve it but that's what Sara would have wanted for him. What Isadora went through and not want to take her own life shows how strong she really is and didn't even know it . Happy she got her happy ending. The only thing i didn't like was that scene after he bought her but understood why it was written in. Other then that great book and ending to the series.

Got to love a love story when two people know they are it for each other but cant make it work till their other part of their heart comes into their lives. Jaxs love for Angel is one i understand when you give and give even if they keep breaking your heart and keep going back cuz you know they are it sucks. I get Jax and him wanting to fix Angel and Oakley he don't want to see the people he loves broken, but only Oakley could have helped with that and only Jax and Angel could have helped her heal from her past. Great read love the story but want to know what happens to Demon.

I do like the first 2.5 books of this series but this one by far is my favorite. I mean come on Bullet big muscle biker guy taking two kids in. Not only taking them in but doing what he had to be able to foster them. As any new parent he was scared of what he got himself in but he never left them even if he wasn't there after Holley showed up. I do have questions on where was Holleys brother when she was going through the abusive relationship??? As much as i hates that she couldn't physically have her own kids she got blessed with two wonderful little boys. They all came into each others life's and helped each other heal.

Short story but i liked it, to hear Ivys story and her butterflies 💜💜💜💜 . I love why she calls them that. Kinda wish she would have made Viper work for it more but again short story and is how you met Holly and get to know her backstory a bit.

Spoilers.... Cheating MFC and MMC.
Great book, perfect example to never judge a book by its cover ( book and people). Have had this book on my tbr list for a good minute . Cole is the perfect example of you don't know what exactly your relationship isn't no good for you till you take a step back. She knew she deserved so much more mentally and physically and Patrick wasn't giving it to her didn't bother to listen to her worries. Hawke saved Cole and she saved him. Just because he wasn't born into money he didn't deserve to take the fall, Patrick and his family took advantage of that. They were all thinking the are above everyone else and to use that they are catholic to make them look good. Glad that they got what they got. Hawke deserved to be happy and at peace with Bens death and Cole gave that to him. Even though there is cheating in the book it wasn't to were me personally couldn't finish the book. I still loved was a great story and written well.

Have had this book on my tbr pile for so long and I'm hating myself for it. It is such a great book, I thought I knew exactly what thr plot of the book was going to be and nope took a whole 180 on me. But it was such a great twist. Love all the characters.
